If only it were so! But you probably have the "Play sounds in web pages"
option unchecked in Internet Options -- I'm not sure what the factory
default is.

Not just that it's a bgsound wav file, but that it seems intended to
frighten newbies into thinking that their PCs have been infected with a
virus -- a very senseless prank. This rates a zero for professionalism in my
book.
A bit of a soapbox admonition for those who might entertain following
this example: think twice before letting your antagonism for a particular
software company or for a particular piece of software spill over into an
abuse of your audience. It ain't hip.
